His curious green eyes settled on my crouched frame behind the chair. I gave out a nervous laugh, " what are you doing here...so early?" I asked and got up to my feet while dusting my sweatpants.
He raised his brows at my stupid question, " last time I checked, I live here, and this happens to be my closet. So what are you doing in here?" He asked. Crap!crap!crap!, "Uh..I uh" I stuttered cluelessly.
He smirked, his eyes held a mischievous look. Somehow it made me take a step back. He followed my action and took a step forward. I gulped and wanted to step back again but this time he grabbed my arm and pulled me forward so there wasn't any room between us.
HolyMaryMotherofGod! I tried to look any where but at his face.
" Why are you in my room?" His voice had dropped to a lower tone. It senTobiasThe secret is out. The whole pack knows that their Alpha found his mate.Well they wouldn't have found out if Phoenix didn't barge into the hospital yelling at the pack doctors and nurses like a lunatic. But it's understandable, no wolf would like to see their mate injured and helpless. I mean I would have done worse if it were Doe who was in such a state.A stab wound for a silver blade to a wolf is like being poisoned to humans.My eyes were getting tired from watching Phoenix pace angrily in the hallway. " Phoenix please sit down" I said for the hundredth time but as usual he ignored me. I thought you didn't care about her but see how worked up you are, I said in my head." This is gold!" Landon exclaimed from beside me, I rolled my eyes at the idiot. He grinn
Beep.Beep.Beep.Beep. Groaning, I reached over and switched off the alarm and went back to snuggling with the warm, sweet smelling pillow in my arms.Suddenly the pillow moved. " Stop moving pillow" I muttered " Phoenix"" shhhhhh" I said and hugged it tighter. The pillow started squirming, " Phoenix... Phoenix you're touching my wound and it kinda hurts...like real bad..let go" my eyes flew open and fell on the pained redhead in my arms.My brain processed the situation. I quickly but cautiously let go of her and got off the bed, " sorry are you okay?" She sat up, " yeah I'm good...but geez! Are you trying to kill me?"" It was a mistake" I said. She pouted, " I thought I was gonna die, you sleep like a log" she complained." I slept like a log" I whispered to myself, she gave me a strange look, " yes I just said that"" first time in four months" I muttered to myself. She frowned, " I think I'm just gon
Well, I was absolutely mistaken when I thought they were taking me to the mini mall to buy a dress. I didn't expect to be standing on a stool, my arms stretched sideways and a seamstress running a tape around my body like no man's business. Looking at the two culprits who brought me here, I said " Guys I think you're going overboard". Millicent scoffed from where she was searching for the perfect material, " that's nonsense, this isn't overboard" she said and Doe nodded in agreement. I raised my eyebrows at them, " I literally feel like I'm preparing for my wedding" I waved my hands around exasperatedly. Doe gasped, " Phoenix proposed??" She asked. I scowled at her, " what? no! What is wrong with you? How did you get that from what I just said?" I asked. She scoffed, " there was 'preparing for my wedding' in your sentence, how did you not get what you said from what you just said"" what?" I
I haven't seen Phoenix all day and I was tired of listening to Doe and her sister argue. I left them to their argument and went to find Phoenix.Entering the left wing, I see a long corridor going straight down with two bends at interval.There were so many doors and I was hella confused. " I should have asked for directions" I muttered to myself.Even if I wanted to ask for directions I couldn't. Wanna know why? Because there is no fricking soul on this wing! Goddamit! I should have asked Millicent.Sighing, I decided to rely on my nose to find him. Yeah...I've regained my sense of smell, quite quickly if you ask me.So much for having your mate close to you. Some doctors are liars... No offense... I fricking healed on my own! Okay maybe he helped but hey!Sniffing the air around me, I picked up a wiff of him and follo
Clover"I don't like cats" he scrunched his nose as he said it. I gasped and asked " why not?"" They're creepy, I'm not really good with animals in general" he said. I giggled, " I think they're cute, with their cute nose and their little feet and their sparkly eyes and their mischievous nature-""pfft" he scoffed.I glared at him, " why are you laughing?". He glanced at me then looked out of the window.He caught his bottom lip between his teeth then released it, " no reason" he smirked and shrugged. What the hell was that?!!!I think my ovaries just exploded...Shut up...horny dog..Hell yeah I am!!! Don't tell me you didn't think that was hot?
CloverAfter we were thrown out of Phoenix's office, we went back to his place so that I could arrange all the things I bought for myself and also relax.Giselle left after an hour leaving only Doe, Millicent and myself.We were seated on the floor in my closet with clothes scattered everywhere. My arms were screaming from folding clothes." So you guys haven't kissed?" I sighed and threw my head back, " no we haven't for the nth time" I answered, Doe huffed in disappointment.Mills chuckled, " Doe, not every mate relationship starts with kissing or fucking like yours" that sentence made me visibly grimace. Doe scoffed " mine started with a full make out, while yours just went full out fucking, so what are you talking about?" She asked. I think I turned pale immediately, " what?".Mills rolled her eyes and said, " we were testing the waters not ha
" What's your favorite anime?"" I don't watch animes" he answered. I gave him a judgy look, " you disappoint me in every way possible" I said and flopped down on the bed.He scoffed and continued to run the towel through his hair, " I don't have time for such things"" no wonder you're ageing quickly" I joked " with age comes wisdom" he replied." Pfft-as if" I muttered and pulled the covers over my body. He joined me a little bit later, laying on his back and staring at the ceiling. We were pulled into a comfortable silence.I could feel the weight of exhaustion pulling me to dreamland, but I had one last question for him. So, I laid on my side facing him, " Phoenix?"" Yeah?" He answered.PhoenixShe yawned then asked, " what does happiness look like to you?".I
A week has passed since that day Phoenix got angry with that Ray guy. He's not talking me by the way. I think he's avoiding me because he called me his... indirectly.He literally avoids eye contact, but keeps throwing glances at me when we're in the same room. He's so adorable!Anyway, tonight is the Alpha ball. I just left the tailor's shop with Doe. We went straight to the pack house since that's where I'm going to get ready.Phoenix sent someone to me, when I was still at the tailor's, to tell me that we would be leaving from the pack house, because that's where all their vehicles are kept. I was actually glad cause I didn't want to have to walk back home.Doe went to get her make up kit, while I stayed in the room I was given to by Phoenix.&nb
WARNING: MENTIONS OF SUICIDE. PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN VOLITION.CLOVERAfter Phoenix woke up, the whole pack was relaxed again. We even had a feast that very night. Everything felt so right once more. That night, when everybody had retired to their respective homes, Phoenix and I laid awake in bed, cuddling and talking about everything and anything, “ That’s not true, I wasn’t worried about your safety, I was worried about the rogues you might have come across” Phoenix said and I scoffed, “ Don’t overestimate me. I’m not that strong, you’re the only thing that kept me going” I joked.He grimaced, “ That was so fucking cheesy, I almost barfed” “ You love me cheesy” I replied, while wiggling my brows at him, and he laughed, “ The hell?! That was even worse”.I smiled at him, “ You really scared me though” I said, “ I was asleep” he said with an eye roll. I bit his chest, “ Well I think I’m now traumatized by you just going to sleep. You’re not allowed to close your eyes ever again” I j
CLOVERAs soon as we got to the pack hospital, Phoenix was placed on a pre-prepared stretcher and taken to the ER. Danny sat quietly in the hallway while I paced back and forth, “ Sit down Clover. You’re making me nauseous” He mumbled.The sound of approaching footsteps made me stop. Aunt Renee and Doe crushed me in a warm hug, “I’m so glad you’re safe” Aunt Ree said, but then her eyes fell on my neck, “ Oh my-you’re bleeding! Doctor!-“ “ Forget it. She won’t go with them” Danny said from his seat and all eyes fell on him. “ Hello, you must be Clover’s brother. I’m Doe” Doe smiled and stretched her hand to him, which he shook to my surprise, “ Daniel” he said and smiled back. I raised my brow at him, “ Wow, look at you being all polite” I mocked, “ Well she’s pretty” he answered and winked at Doe. An arm circled Doe’s waist, “ And taken” Tobias said with a warning look. He had bandages running from over his left shoulder to his torso, but he was fine. Danny smiled in amusement, “ Ju
CLOVER Danny was right. Moping was not going to solve our problems. Those things had already happened, and there was nothing I could do about it. After crying for a while, I wiped my tears and said, “ You’re right. I’m sorry…I was just….”, Danny sighed,“ I get it. We just have to get out of here fast” he said. That being said, I looked around the cell and suddenly had a sense of de ja vu, “ These walls look like they’ve been standing for decades, maybe there’s a weak spot” I mumbled. I felt around the wall for something, anything. When I felt around the walls near Danny, some stones crumbled under my finger. Danny came to stand beside me and eyed the spot too. As I was about to tell him the next plan, someone knocked on our cell bar. We froze in place, “ Shit…” Danny cursed under his breath and we turned around, only to find that it was the weird guard from before. He was looking everywhere, as if to check of anyone was coming, before he opened the door and walked straight to me.
MILLICENT Something strange is happening up above us. Ever since this morning there had been a lot of howling. Sad, mournful howls. Like something bad had happened. When wolves howl like that, it usually signifies the death of a ruler.I’ve also been having this bad feeling in my gut. I haven’t been able to sit still, and I don’t know how to calm the others with me. I know Clover isn’t dead, because if she was, we would have felt it. I just feel like she’s in grave danger.“ When is Alpha Phoenix gonna get here?”, One of them asked, “ I don’t know”,I replied anxiously. This has been the question for the past two-three days? I’m not even sure how long we’ve been here. “ I don’t think that girl got to the pack” “ How do you know that?”“ If she had reached the pack, we wouldn’t be here by now!” “ Can you just wait? I’m sure Alpha Phoenix is on his way……right?”“ He has abandoned us! We’re doomed”“ How can you say that about your own Alpha?!”“ If we weren’t abandoned, then why have
WARNING: MENTIONS OF MURDER AND SUICIDE. PHOENIX“ What are we going to do?” Tobias asked after Landon relayed the information to him, “ Prepare the warriors, we’re going to snowfall pack…” I simply said. Tobias frowned, “ Warriors? Are you planning to start a war?” He asked. I leaned back in my chair, trying to keep my wolf calm, “ If need be” I replied. Landon nodded and went for the door, “…I think you’re being a bit too rash? I mean, we can just try to talk it out first before taking any actions, right?” He asked.LANDONAs soon as Tobias spat those words out, the air in the office grew cold. My whole body went completely still. A feeling I haven’t had in a while. My wolf shrank to the farthest part of my mind and I involuntarily bowed my head. “ I’m being rash?” Phoenix asked coldly, not even hiding the bloodlust seeping out of him. He got up and walked towards Tobias, “ You think I’m being rash…You’re acting like you don’t know what’ll happen to Clover if she spends another t
ALEXIAWhen I opened my eyes, I was greeted by the white ceiling of the pack hospital, and the smell of antiseptic. My throat felt dry, “ Water” I choked out. Someone immediately rushed to my side and a cup was pressed against my lips. I greedily gulped down the whole cup. “How are you feeling?” Someone asked on my left. I looked up and realized it was Alpha Phoenix, and the person who gave me water was Gamma Landon. I blinked several times, “ I-I’m fine. Alpha Phoenix…” I paused as my brain did a full reset, “Luna Clover…” “ Hey. You must be hungry. Eat first, then you can talk” he said and passed a bowl of food to me.It took me seconds before the bowl was empty. I drank some water and began talking, “ Luna followed her brother to another pack. I heard some guards saying that, that was were their mother is” “ Okay. What about the remaining pack members?” Alpha Phoenix asked. “ They’re fine, at least. We planned to escape together, but they got caught. Those rogues won’t hurt them,
ALEXIAI don’t know how long I’d been running. I think two nights passed before I got to the border of our pack. The joy that filled my soul was unexplainable. But my legs gave out from fatigue. My body ached from running non-stop. The guards at the border quickly ran to me. My vision blurred, “ Gamma! One of the pack warriors just arrived at the border”someone shouted. Someone grabbed my hand, “ Hey what happened? Where are the others?” His voice was desperate. I held his hand, “ Help…East…Luna…Trouble” I gasped out before it went completely dark.*******PHOENIX I was in my office doing some paperwork when my door flew open and one of the warriors barged in, “ What the hell?-“ “ One of the park members has returned, alpha!” He announced. From the tone of his voice, something was off. My heart began to race as I rushed to the pack hospital.Goddess, what happened to Clover? Please let her be okay. Please.On getting to the hospital, I rushed to the ward. Landon was already there,
We walked for almost eight hours before Danny told us to rest. We were a total of seven including my brother, elder Simon, four guards and myself.Danny and elder Simon went aside to talk about goddess knows what while the guards set up two tents. I knew I wasn’t going to have a tent, so I found a comfortable tree to rest up on. My mind wandered off as I stared up at the branches and trees swaying gently with wind. I wondered what Phoenix was doing at the moment. Was he busy tending to the pack matters? Of course he was, certainly. Did he miss me as well?….I suddenly felt restless. In my chest there was an uncomfortable feeling and I pat on it to ease myself. ‘ It’s because we’re far away from him…Don’t worry it’s just for a while’ My wolf said, trying to comfort me.Barely had time to answer before something landed on my lap. I winced and looked in the direction it was thrown from. The guards were sitting on a log not far from me, snickering and throwing mocking glances my way. I
Third person’s POVA man’s silhouette stood behind a tree. His features were not prominent because the moon light was blocked by the trees. Elder Simon treaded quietly towards the man, “ Sorry for the wait, that lad wouldn’t let me leave” He said and lowered his head to the man.The man in the shadows scoffed, “ Its because of your suspicious behavior that he now has his eyes on you. Anyway, why did you send for me?” He asked. Elder Simon looked around before saying, “ That murderer has returned. And they’ve found the whereabouts of their mother. He plans to leave tomorrow at dawn. Tell Alpha Charles our plan is falling into place” he told the other man who bowed and vanished immediately after.*******CLOVERIt was almost dawn when I was awoken by hushed mumbling and shuffling above me. They were having a furious debate between themselves. Before I could listen in on their conversation, they both became quiet. I slowly sat back on the ground and pretended to be asleep.There was a lo
